HHHmmm I guess I can say I don't think age has anything to do with it.
Only 2 women I have ever dated have been younger up until now. It wasn't
by choice it just happened that way. Now it seems I have found someone
who is younger that truly wishes the same things in life I do, and 11
yrs isn't that much difference if you ask me since my Fathers last wife
was 3 or 4 yrs younger than me. It was funny when I called her Mom, she
turned beat red and we all laughed.

Hey Fanta, do you have any spiced tea? I think it would go good with
some of the bores here.

G

Who's the POO Butt? I mean Poo Bah humbug? errrr ummm the Poo Bah?


Maybe he can show us the way to the bathroom?

I say let the women in, someone obviously has never been married, you
can never keep em out of a conversation.



G

Thank you for the kind words.

It is possible that some friends of yours might be in the LA area for
his Bday. My Gma is the day after mine and we haven't had Bdays
together for far to many years.

I mean it would be hard for someone to marry me if she didn't even know
my Mom.

Mid august if I can find a job quickly after moving.

Friendship

Long I travel, many a mile,
Seeking love within her smile.
While I travel near and far,
Friends are near as a star.

Some will say stars are distant,
Friends are too in an instant.
Quicker than the speed of light,
Friends will help in dark of night.

Walking down the path I choose,
Without friends I would lose.
I would lose my path today,
If my friends were far away.

You my friends will read my words,
Written here in little blurbs.
Sitting here alone today,
Walking now my friends will stay.

In my mind these friends are true,
In my mind I think the few.
Friends I have that guide with pride,
Walk along the great divide.

Many miles between my friends,
Tears upon this keyboards sends.
Hopes and dreams to all who read,
Tears of hope to those in need.

Needed guidance from a friend,
Walking quiet to the end.
Of the world walk with me,
Walk alone to be set free.

Free to walk where no one goes,
Walk together friendship grows.
Grow with me in my smile,
Travel far for many a mile.

Miles apart my friends are few,
Remember well my friends are true.
Truest friends will help and guide,
As we cross the great divide.

As I travel late this week,
To my love, a friend I seek.
Sought from dreams within the night,
Guide this friend to find the light.

Lights of love, lights of passion,
Guide this friend in timely fashion.
Fashion for me in a smile,
Now I travel many a mile.


To all those who have helped me in finding my dream Thank you for being
my friend.




G

In the last few years I have traveled many a mile, in each instance it
seems someone sat with me. I can't say I saw who it was every time,but
rest assured someone will always sit beside me when I am seeking a
friend.

Thank you for this story.

So now the Pagans are perverts? That is truly Laughable, to think I
believe sex is perverted is also laughable. Why would I even try to
research the archives to show someone when sex was used as a way to
control people? If you wish my opinion on the matter then ask, from the
dawn of time the strong in society have used sex for their own desires.

Do you think we are any different than the rest of the animal kingdom?
If you look at any pack or pride of aggresive/dominate animals on this
planet you will see it is the Alpha male and female that mate to protect
the lines of creation. The alphas in most cases will even kill offspring
produced that are not their own in some instances.

Look back into time, the bible and its teachings did not come into
existance until approx 312 ad I believe, yet prior to that sex was
deterred from by the working class and controlled by the rich.
Permission was granted to peasants on a merchants farm to have a child.
It was the merchants responsibility to feed the entire family as payment
for their services, to have a child was a type of raise. This being the
case SEX was how the peasants were controlled even in ancient times.

To say that the religions started this practice could be correct,
however to state that Christianity was the first to use it as a club is
far from the truth.

As for your Comment of being an authority on paganism, or any other
religion, I am far from being an authority on any one of them.

BTW your use of sarcasm is getting better, at least this time you used
it properly, and you even learned how to spell my name. That in itself
shows progress and an ability to learn something. lol

Family we are born into, Friends are those that we bring into our lives.

Hey am I supposed to be stopping somewhere other than Ohio? It would be
nice if someone would let me know, I mean Galahad surely didn't tell me.
He is not very good at writing down messages.

I lost a friend many years ago to the same disease we were about that
age, I stopped backpacking shortly after that, it wasn't the same
without him.

"Christianity has demonize sex since time began"

LOL, you say christianity started this? That truly is funny, Most if not
all of the old religions demonize sex. Some of the old ways even in
Pagan history demonize sex. This has been an attempt by most religions
to control a persons desires, it is not limited to any one particular
religion. I am sure there are many people who feel certain types of sex
are immoral and for them it is, however if we use one of the oldest
written books we have it speaks of unconscionable sex with numerous
partners at one time being wrong. This I tend to agree with, not because
of my Christian beliefs but because I hold that is how I show my
feelings to my Companion in life.



G

Ghost lets start with this "So they demonize stuff just because some ppl
abuse it. That makes no
sense" your words.

It seems to me that you are saying that certain things are "demonized"
by the mormon faith because they are injurious to the body. I beg to
differ with you in that regard, it is my understanding that these things
are not only injurious to the body but also they are able to change the
mind/body funtions, hence considered mood/mind altering items. It is not
just because these things can injure the body if used in excess, it is
because when they are used they change a persons attitude and
personality.

These things can turn people into demons, however you imply the chuch
demonizes things and you don't understand why. Next time instead of
using sarcasm in your post you might try another technique to show
ignorance of a particular faiths beliefs.

Rest beneath the starry skies,
Rest of all the people’s sighs.
Kneel before a cask of old,
More precious than a bag of gold.

Sights of war from eons past,
Care was taken for it to last.
From the dawn of time foretold,
Prophets spoke the words I’m told.

Tell the people he will come,
One day when the lights are done.
Finished of in times foretold,
Speaking wisdom of the old.

Sing a song for him in praise,
One day soon he will reraise.
Hopes of life times of gold,
Speaks of life that’s made to hold.

Hold prophetic words before,
Tell the children tales of yore.
Speak to them of life’s winning,
Truth in life is soon beginning.

For the ones who speak in lies,
Take the gold that some despise.
Spend these things that you may gain,
Feel the wrath of love in pain.

Sorely now I say to you,
Feel the pain that you will do.
Do not hurt a gentle soul,
Fight for life a simple goal.

Follow words that can be passed,
From the times of eons past.
Show a spark of love inside,
Feel the things that will not hide.

Show this soul that is within,
Seek a life that will begin.
Start to live this life today,
Gentle life the only way.

Look upon the stars tonight,
Seek this guidance from the light.
Look across the plains of life,
See a soul who seeks no strife.

Give a smile for one who sees,
Dreams of stars who can be free.
Golden times from the cask,
Show yourself without the mask.

Time will show the stars to me,
Now they show themselves to thee.
Look tonight with your own eyes,
Rest beneath the stars replies.

AB,
In this faith you are not Forbidden to do anything, recomendations are
made and it is your choice to abide by it or not. If you own a store it
is your choice to make Your own decision on what to carry or what to
buy. Does that mean I have to go broke because of my religious beliefs?
People will buy what they want wherever they can get it.

If I was to use your Idea about this AB that would mean I wouldn't be
able to buy stocks in almost any large companies because they are sure
to have some investment in either alcohol or tobacco.



G

There better be some when I get there, you didn't make enough when you
were here to last long enough.



G

Nice to see a bear talking about birds n bees.

So they demonize stuff just because some ppl abuse it. That makes no
sense.

Give me a break Ghost. Demonized? Nope, alcohol and caffiene are both
considered drugs that can and do alter the body chemistry. Lots of
things can and do alter the bodies chemistry in excess, however both
alcohol and caffiene alter moods AND Chemistry in small amounts. In many
states if you consume more than one 16 oz can of beer an hour you could
be considered Legally Drunk. Have you ever seen a coffee holic in the
morning before their coffee? I have and they are real crabby so please
don't tell me caffiene is safe to use.

Elwood, I am glad to finally see you here. Its nice that you two are
trying again. As for what others post? Seems they would need to know the
whole story and frankly I am sure it's far too long for here.

BTW, If I know Wanda she was trying to show someone else something with
how she posts.
